What happened this past season?
In 2025, Island Arts hosted over 40 events including live music, dance, musical theater, yoga, craft workshops, family movie nights, painting demonstrations, and 10 youth events that reached over 60 local youth. 40% of concert performances were free to all; all concerts were free for ages 22 and under. $6,300 in scholarship and tuition assistance was provided to young, arts focused Grand Isle County Students. Over 2,395 people attended our events from across the Champlain Islands and beyond.
Whats been happening to the barn?
The second phase of repairs to the Island Arts barn was completed. The new roof was the highlight of 2024. In 2025, the walls were wrapped in sound insulation, and new siding, windows, and doors were installed, thanks to many generous donors like you.
